Standard (EADGBE)

Verse

The books about my dad condensed

 And the fables to remember this

 I think about it all the time

 And realize it's vain

 I feel like gasoline tonight

 Let's dance so close we might catch fire

 I can't be honest all the time

 I can't be honest all the time

Pre-chorus

Life is full of promises and prophecies

Well life has made me famous on my knees

And everywhere there's amateurs and enemies

Everywhere there's everyone but me

Chorus

 She said you'll be fine

 I promise that I'll leave on the light

 What are you afraid of?

 What are you afraid of?

Verse

I advertise my memories, low and behold humanity

 I condescend you sympathy can understand my pain

I can only hope this melody will scream across like clarity

 I can't be honest all the time

 I can't be honest all the time

Pre-chorus

People say the army's got a home for me

To find myself out of this rut

 And maybe greatness isn't in my destiny

 'Sides people say a lot of things so what?

Chorus

 She said you'll be fine

 I promise that I'll leave on the light

 What are you afraid of?

 What are you afraid of?

Bridge

 That alcohol is heavier than lead

 And Hunter S. Thompson is dead

 She said you'll never have enough

 Until the day that you wake up

 And everything is gone

 Oh everything is gone

Chorus

 She said you'll be fine

 I promise that I'll leave on the light

 What are you afraid of?

 What are you afraid of?

Verse

I advertise my memories, low and behold humanity

 I condescend you sympathy can understand my pain

I can only hope this melody will scream across like clarity

 I can't be honest all the time

 I can't be honest all the time

Bridge

 That alcohol is heavier than lead

 And Hunter S. Thompson is dead

 She said you'll never have enough

 Until the day that you wake up

 And everything is gone

 Oh everything is gone
